Lower Division Requirements
Fall 2008 - Spring 2009

BS - Engineering - Electrical Engineering

San José State University -to- Berkeley City College

Community College students should meet with a counselor as soon as possible to determine the equivalent courses offered at that institution. Students should complete as many as possible of the lower division requirements listed below, prior to transfer.

Lower Division Course Requirements

Community College Course Equivalents

Preparation for the Major:

General Chemistry Equivalent CourseChem 1A General Chemistry (*)
   OR
Chem 1B General Chemistry (*)
Note: SJSU requires completion of the Chemistry sequence for most majors, however this major only requires completion of one semester equivalent General Chemistry, in lieu of CHEM 1A.
MATH 030 Calculus IMath 3A Calculus I
MATH 031 Calculus IIMath 3B Calculus II
MATH 032 Calculus IIIMath 3C Calculus III
MATH 133A Ordinary Differential Equations
Community College math courses articulated with SJSU's Math 133A will meet course content requirements for the major but will not receive upper division credit.		Math 3F Differential Equations
CONTENT CREDIT ONLY

Physics Requirement:

Note: Students who begin their university experience as freshmen at San José State University will need to take the following Physics series: PHYSICS 70, 71 and 72 (equivalent to PHYSICS 50, 51, 52, 53) at San José State University. All transfer students will be expected to have completed the course equivalents to the Physics series listed below.
PHYS 050 General Physics/MechanicsPHYS 4A General Physics with Calculus
PHYS 051 General Physics/Electricity and MagnetismPHYS 4B General Physics with Calculus
PHYS 052 General Physics/Heat and LightPHYS 4C General Physics with Calculus
PHYS 053 General Physics/Atomic Physics
NOTE: if there is no transfer equivalent for Physics 53 the transfer student will need to complete this requirement at SJSU.		PHYS 4C General Physics with Calculus
OR
PHYS 070 MechanicsPHYS 4A General Physics with Calculus
PHYS 071 Electricity and MagnetismPHYS 4B General Physics with Calculus
PHYS 072 Atomic PhysicsPHYS 4C General Physics with Calculus

Engineering Rquirements:

CMPE 046 Computer Engineering ICIS 25 Object Oriented Programming Using C++
ENGR 010 Introduction to EngineeringNo Current Equivalent
EE 097 Introductory Electrical Engineering LaboratoryNo Current Equivalent
EE 098 Introduction to Circuit AnalysisNo Current Equivalent
ENGL 001B Composition 2
<i>A "C" or better is required in English 1B (a "C-" is not acceptable). English 1B is required of all Engineering majors.</i>		Engl 1B Composition and Reading

CAN Qualified Courses (*)

The following Berkeley City College courses are CAN qualified.
Chem 1ACAN Chem 2+4
Chem 1BCAN Chem 2+4
CAN System courses are acceptable "in lieu of" each other.
CAN System courses are not necessarily "equivalent" or "identical" in content.

Additional Graduation Requirements

Lower Division General Education (39 semester or 58 quarter units) - some of the courses listed above may be approved for general education credit as well as major preparation at your institution. Please see your college counselor/advisor to review your general education in order to receive FULL OR PARTIAL CERTIFICATION PRIOR TO TRANSFER to San José State University. You may be required to take additional lower division general education courses if you do not provide SJSU WITH A FULL OR PARTIAL CERTIFICATION OF GENERAL EDUCATION upon transfer.

American Institutions Requirement (3-9 semester or 5-15 quarter units) - may be satisfied within the lower division general education requirements.

Physical Education Requirement (2 courses) - at least 2 different activities.
